Belliston Balderdash

Happy New Year!!!

It was fun to have dad stop by for a visit this month.  He was here for about an hour but it was good to catch up.  We don't get to many visitors down this way, but we got a new air mattress and we always have ice cream, so feel free to stop by.

Anyway, while dad was here it seemed like he had a hard time understanding some of the English being spoken at our house.  So we thought it would be fun to play a little Belliston Balderdash!  Here is a list of vocabulary words that will be helpful to know.  Guess what the word means, write it down, and put your answers in the comments.  The winner will receive a prize!  We will put the answers at the bottom but make sure you don't cheat (honor code applies here).  Here we go!

Loopies
Doe (as in go to the...)
Boliag
Show
Dop
Duyo C
Fato (Fato dad, Fato!)
Nemnem
Teet
Gant
Feuwd
Clocklet
Popo
Bafum
Mado is da mom!
and my personal favorite - P(spit)aketball

Best of luck!!

A far as the predictions go, I think I want to renew the 2016 predictions if that's OK.  I think I was about a year off on those.

Lori has a new favorite game, Boggle.  I'm not much fun to play with because I can't spell anything longer than 3 letters, but Lori can't wait for the Boggle tournament!

We miss you all!

  1. Hey, great game!! We only missed Boliag, Fato (we thought it was father), and Popo! Well, and we didn't guess Mado is da mom - my interpretation was, "What's the matter, Mom?" But we got all the rest correct! Can't wait for our prize :) Let's play again, with new words!!
